Damn. Is it *that* good? (Of course it is, you silly.) The Happy Price is one of the best tales ever. OH NO WHAT AM I GOING TO DO? I'm so gonna cry... :C
I know, I know, I'm working on a way that jackpy told me I could record it from the mpeg4 format into something y'all can listen to as an mp3, but it'll take some time this weekend.
YEAH it was that good. I believe Mr Fry said in his blog post, "Some of you have wondered how I read some of these stories aloud without crying? That's easy: I didn't."
...YOU ARE MADE OF LITTLE PIECES OF HEAVEN. YES YOU ARE. DON'T BE SHY, ADMIT IT. Must remember to thank Jack for talking you into doing this. ^^
Yeah, I read that and thought-naaah, that can't be, can it? Sure it can Margaux, haven't you seen him cry before? Hell yeah, you have. Have you heard him read? Yup. Heard him read WILDE? Thought I was going to melt,'t was that wonderful. Now finally, do you adore the man? DUH.
THEN GO BUY THAT FREKKIN CD! Make yourself happy. Oh. They don't sell it yet in Belgium. Delightful. *cries*
Man, and I cried when I read that story to myself (yeah, so sometimes I read to myself, so what?) it's just so unbelievable heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time.
I CANNOT WAIT. Weekends starts Friday's after 18.OO right? RIGHT?
OH, I was just listening to Fry's reading of Oscar Wilde short stories (available on iTunes at a reasonable price?) and The Happy Prince was very very very very very very very *deep breath* very very very sad.
